I'm creating the individual family backgrounds now. Have just finished the blacksmiths and the bronze-smiths, now I'm working on the glass workers and the bone cravers. With a list of family members, their ages, their short bios, family trees, description of their homes, etc. Yes, I'm insane, I know. But it's great fun!
The guild of the blacksmiths, which I've just posted to Edhellond, contains sixteen members (children who married off or chose a different occupation not counted).
The guild of the bronze-smiths has twenty-one members, with the above restriction. I decided to make small, family-guilds, as the whole town has 650-700 inhabitants, tops, most of them fishermen, so I can't have God knows how big guilds.
As for name-giving, I decided to use genuine Cornish names, since most of the inhabitants are not DĂșnedain but the Old Folk of this area. Run a bit short on female names, though, so I had to use some other Celtic names as well.
That's all about right now. You won't be spared of more nerdydetails later. *g*
